Selenite is one of our favorite mineral allies. We love this big chunk of it that lives in our space, gifted to @kimchristensen.lac by one of her mentors, who received it from a friend of hers after he dug it up in Utah! Here's a bit more about why Selenite is a true ally for the times we're in.⁠ ⁠ Selenite aka tou ming shi "illumination coming out stone"⁠ ⁠ ▷taste: sweet, spicy⁠ ▷nature: cold⁠ ▷affinities: Lung, Stomach, Urinary Bladder⁠ ⁠ Way long ago in Chinese Medicine history, the Wen Bing/Heat Disease school asserted that Heat was the dominant pathogen causing illness, compared to previous notions that Wind and Cold were the main causes of disease. It's an interesting model to explore these days, as we live in a notably hot time. Climate change and rising ocean temps, #amiright? But also, living in what can feel like impossibly fast pace, the perpetuation of constant distraction and multitasking, and acts of fiery violence, hate, and divisiveness. It's all a little much.⁠ ⁠ Selenite is a cooling stone that helps our body's internal rivers move out the heat and moisten and soothe our tissues. Selenite can be placed over clothes, or directly on the skin. There are lots of ways to use selenite in combination with acupoints, but we also think that personal intuition about where place to place a stone on the body is often the best medicine. ⁠ ⁠ If you want a few tips, though....⁠ We like placing pieces of selenite in the palms to help open the chest, soothe agitation, and calm the spirit. Kim loves placing a selenite want on the chest of anyone with a respiratory infection to help clear out hot phlegm! And waving a wand of selenite anywhere over the body can cleanse the aura and move stagnant qi.⁠ ⁠ Thank you, Selenite 🖤⁠ ⁠ 📚 "Stone Medicine" by Leslie J Franks, based on the oral teachings of Master Jeffrey Yuen ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ••••••••••••••••••••••⁠ ⁠ #stonemedicine #crystals #crystalhealing #acupuncture #herbalmedicine #healthfuelshustle #fuelyourhustle #selfcare #wellness #healing #minneapolis #mpls #northloop #northloopmpls #smallbusiness #bossbabe #bosswitch #communityovercompetition
CH-CH-CH-CH-CHANGES // If you've been following us for a while, you know we're always looking new for ways to make our offerings more accessible and valuable for our community. We think we figured out a great way to make that happen with our Yoga + Acupuncture program!⠀ ⠀ ⠀ We have more to share with you about the five elements of Chinese Medicine and how the movement we do and the points we choose can all contribute to your wellness - and we just can't squeeze that in during a 90 minute session! We realized that increasing the class time, spacing out when the classes are offered, and sharing them in a larger space gives us the opportunity to craft something really special for you, while also having more space for more people.⠀ ⠀ In order to make room for these changes, we will be having our final class at @waterbar_mpls on Tues 7/23 as we shift from an every other week, 90-minute class to a quarterly-ish, 2-hour workshop model in a new location! ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ Our new and improved Yoga + Acu workshops will focus on the five elements of Chinese medicine. Each workshop will be a deep dive into the corresponding element of the season. This Fall we'll be focusing on the Metal Element - helping you boost your energetic and physical boundaries, learning to let go, and processing grief. If you're on our email list we promise that you'll be the first to know when the details are available and spots are open for registration. Not on the mailing list? Click our bio link to sign up! ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ Join us at our last Yoga + Acu class at @waterbar_mpls on Tues 7/23 - @kimchristensen.lac will be your acu-babe and @tatummarie will be your yoga teacher for the evening. 7-8:30pm, $25, BYO mat, register in bio link. ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ We've loved our time at @waterbar_mpls and we're so thankful to those who have supported us and that space with your resources, time, and energy. Also, huge thanks to our additional yoga teachers Jenn Pray (@natureismovement) and Greg Hines (@gregulator) for sharing their gifts and passion with us.⠀ ⠀ ⠀ Stay tuned for details on our new Yoga + Acu format, coming soon!⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ••••••••••••••••••••••⠀ ⠀ #yoga #slowflow #acupuncture #minneapolis #mpls #northloop #northloopmpls #commu
